Has anyone named their machine?

My Massey 3165 industrial is called my "MF Hoe".

 

[miramadar]

I just call it "MY tractor".

The Kioti is called "the great pumpkin."

My two Allis chalmers are "pretty Allis" and "ugly Allis" because one is restored and one is rough.

My Deere is "JD", my power king economy is "itsi bitsi" and my Bobcat is "cat". You can blame all this on my wife as she's the one to name them.

Well, I've never named my tractors, but there are occasions I've called them names!
Nothing I could print here though...

I agree with Roy. The last week mine has been !@$%^&^%$#@ B*tch. I have a power steering cylinder that I'm trying to take off and cant get it to pop loose.

My Kubota's name is "Fremont", but I didn't name it. True story. I bought it from a guy in Missouri, Dave, who had purchased it from the original owners. As the story goes, an older couple bought it to build their retirement home. Somewhere in the middle of the build, the gentleman was diagnosed with cancer. He died before the house was completely done. When he went to pick up the tractor from the widow and her son, Dave said they both were outside kicking stones and just generally milling around, looking very sad. Finally, the widow said "I have to go inside" and did. Shortly thereafter, her son mumbled he had to go inside, too. Dave said when he pulled out, they both were standing on the front porch, crying. They had asked him if they could call me from time to time to see how Fremont was doing.

If they are reading this, I'd like to tell them that Fremont is doing very well and he's found a good home....

Mine got named today. The "Lil' Red Mule" is what she'll be called from now on. After I named her I got the power washer out and gave her a bath. I can't wax her, she won't stay still long enough
